Fifteen undocumented immigrants were discovered in a box truck at Border Patrol's checkpoint on Interstate 35.

The smuggling attempt was intercepted Thursday after the driver of the box truck consented to a non-intrusive scan utilizing an X-ray machine at the checkpoint. During the non-intrusive scan, a Border Patrol agent saw anomalies within the cargo area of the box truck.
